About thescribe11/Super-Star-Trek
Super Star Trek is a Python 3.8 port of one of the earliest computer games, originally created by Mike Mayfield in 1971 and fed into computers via punch cards. The game is a text-based space exploration and combat simulator set in the Star Trek universe. This version is based on Tom Almy's C implementation and includes gameplay modifications such as vector-based torpedo targeting instead of the original coordinate displacement system.
The project is currently in active development but remains in an unfinished state, with the developer acknowledging significant technical debt from spaghetti code and lack of proper testing infrastructure. The game can be run from the command line by navigating to the source directory, though executables for Windows and Linux have not yet been released. The developer welcomes contributions via pull requests and is open to improvements that advance the project toward a fully playable state.
